Whenever I open VLC and select the customize interface to customize the tool bars and select an object to place into it it shows the red circle with a line through it and locks everything up to where I have to switch ttys and pkill vlc to get the system back.

Whenever I open VLC and select the customize interface to customize the tool bars and select an object to place into it it shows the red circle with a line through it and locks everything up to where I have to switch ttys and pkill vlc to get the system back.

If you run vlc from a terminal, do any message get displayed when the problem occurs ?
